Newsday's Neil Best broke the news that New York's all-world radio yappers "Mike and the Mad Dog" may soon be no more and, now, more theories emerge that this could actually happen sooner than later.

One popular theory is that WFAN would keep one host, should the pair decide the partnership is untenable. Sources feel this would be a disaster for the show, since the reason for the pair's success is that the supremely arrogant Francesa brings a modicum of credibility to the airwaves (boasting about his cozy relationship with Bill Parcells, for instance), and plays well against Russo's silly, fanboy, gibberish antics.
